We were happy seven days ago
You were finally on your way back home
Well Boston Logan had done something wrong
Because your eyes they didn't look the same
You couldn't even hold my gaze
But you can't really love me
Until you can love yourself
At least that's what I told myself when I let you go
I guess we knew the fighting
Was no use put down your arms
Inevitable self discovery
But first you have to f*ckin' leave me
The one thing that we desperately need
Isn't close to what our hearts would have us believe
Future nights will surely drench our separate beds
With the tears of distance and regret
But we grow only when we learn from pain
And pain is the best friend of the romantically insane
May we lose us as we try to find ourselves
The phoenix shines, the ashes cry
Love again or fly
We were happy-ish three years ago
Both different fars from different homes
I tried to break up with you there and then
But I couldn't help it and we kissed
I wanted nothing more than this
Yes I wanted no one else
And you only wanted me
Senior year was coming soon
We settled back into it
Then we found ourselves entombed
In timeless love and comfortable doom
The one thing that we desperately need
Isn't close to what our hearts would have us believe
Future nights will maybe drench our separate beds
With the tears of hope and reconnect
Now we grow as we trudge through all this pain
And pain is the best friend of the romantically insane
May we lose us as we try to find ourselves
The phoenix shines, the ashes cry
Love again or fly
I tried to write a happy song but
Found my motivation gone
The ocean state's no place to be
When you aren't sitting next to me
I guess we'll have to see
If the endless cotton candy sunsets
Help me learn to love myself
I wake up every single morning
Alone, it's gone, our hourglass sand
Love again or fly
